    It seems like the refs want to make sure Peterman knows his place. They are going to fuck with him until he stands up for himself and the team. Letting that long pass happen without stopping play was a mistake.

    I did like to see that later in the game, when AZ receiver clearly fumbled after a big hit by I believe the Budda, refs didn't call it and Peterman had to call a timeout to get them to review it, and he was in that ref's ear for a full 3 minutes following him down the field towards the replay review. I thought that would be something DJ would do.

    Now, I'm not saying Pete is DJ, don't go twisting.

    I re-watched the backwards pass and it was tough to tell from the TV angle. Looked pretty close, but because the camera angle wasn't straight on I gave them the benefit of the doubt. I questioned it enough to rewind and check, though.

    At the game, it even looked more forward. I was amazed on the TV it was as close as it was.

    I don't buy into the conspiracy theory stuff. The refs just flat out fucking sucked that game.

    If AZ loses that game, Oregon's playoff shot is gone. The refs are paid by the Pac-12. Playoffs are big money for the conference.

    Refs can't be perfect all the time. The only perfectly officiated game I've ever seen was Super Bowl XL.

    I haven't watched the TV copy of the game (no desire to do so), but the officiating was as brutal as I've ever seen it. It seemed completely obvious to me that the PAC wanted Arizona to win the game and was going to do what it could to that effect.

    The backward pass was at least worth a replay given that PAC officials tend to want to replay everything to start with.

    The fumble that we recovered that Petersen had to call timeout on was a joke - someone was asleep at the wheel.

    I got conflicting info coming back from the Cooper fumble - some said it was and some said it wasn't. Call on the field would stand if it was that close ... but it took forever for there to be a call on the field to start with.

    The replay on Mickens' fumble/recovery was one that really pissed me off in light of the above ... Mickens' fumbled/recovered at the same spot on the field basically. What exactly was the review for?

    The loudest cheer of the day was in the second half when Arizona finally got called for a flag. The entire Husky section erupted in cheers. It was clear to all in Tucson that we were getting jobbed by the officials.

    Larry Scott needs to get his house in order or GTFO when it comes to officiating.
